In the worst clash in years, the Houthis killed 16 Yemeni government soldiers.

The article reports on recent clashes between Yemeni government forces and the Houthi rebels in the western province of Hodeidah, which authorities describe as the deadliest conflict in several years. At least 16 members of the internationally recognized Yemeni government were killed, with 22 others injured, according to medical sources. The fighting occurred in the area of Jabal Dabbas, where violence escalated along the western coast. A government military official stated that the Houthis launched an attack late Thursday, briefly capturing positions before government forces regained control by early Saturday. The official noted that the Houthis used snipers and drones, resulting in significant casualties. While the exact number of Houthi casualties remains undisclosed, both sides have suffered losses. The conflict, ongoing since 2015, continues despite a ceasefire agreement mediated by the United Nations in 2022. Recent hostilities followed threats from the Houthis against Saudi Arabian infrastructure, which supports the Yemeni government.
